The Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) is an internationally recognised centre of excellence for research in tropical diseases. Through the creation of effective links with governments, organisations and institutions and by responding to the health needs of communities, LSTM aims to promote improved health, particularly for people of the less developed / resource poorest countries in the tropics and sub-tropics.
To meet the challenges of ensuring that LSTM provides a quality financial service, we are seeking to recruit an experienced Credit Controller to undertake a range of duties associated with receivable and credit control functions with core responsibilities for keeping sales ledger accounting records up to date, allocating payments in various currencies and chasing unpaid debts.
Educated to GCSE level (with Grade C passes or above in English and Mathematics), ideally you will be AAT qualified at an appropriate level or equivalent. With extensive and proven credit control experience you must have financial acumen gained through dealing with multi companies and differing financial processes.
It is essential that you have excellent interpersonal and communication skills to develop effective working relationships both internally and externally as you will be communicating with a number of different departments and agencies. Alongside these skills you will use your knowledge of different accounting packages to assist with the development of systems and processes.
The role will require you to work to tight deadlines so excellent time management and organisational skills are essential as is an excellent working knowledge of MS Office applications.
